You left me here on your way to paradiseYou pulled the tail right out from under my lifeI know where you goin' to I knew when you came home last nightBut your eyes had a mist from the smoke of a distant fire.

Lord, I was stung shoulda' seen it a long time agoWhen I realized the reality gave me a rollIf things are the same then explain why your kiss is so coldAnd that mist in your eyes feels like rain on the fire in my soul.

This lying, and cryin's, upsettin' and getting no whereIt don't stack up, so slack up and pack up, I just don't careDon't let the screen door hit you, on your way outDon't you drown when your dream boat runs onto the ground.

I'd just like to know, do you love him or just making timeBy filling his glass with your fast flowing bitter-sweet liesHe'll face the after taste when you come home late some nightWith your eyes all a mist from the smoke of a distant fire.

Girl, your eyes have a mist from the smoke of a distant fire.(Your eyes have a mist from the smoke of a distant fire)Your eyes have the mist from the smoke of a distant fire.(Your eyes have a mist from the smoke of a distant fire.)Girl, your eyes have a mist from the smoke of a distant fire...
